Help for newbie on alternative financing ideas

Alberto Medina
Posted

Hello!

My wife and I are wanting to start our career in house flipping/investing (while maintaining our current careers until we get off the ground) We are stuck at the beginning stages and need advice.

We have reached out to family/friends anyone in our circle for investors yet no ones interested or have the money to invest. In addition, we have reached out to hard money lenders who’s  max is up to 75% for the purchase. The problem we are running into is that we don’t have 25% down and no gap funding available at this time. 

What is another option? We’re not ones to give up we just need some help/advice on maybe a different approach we haven’t heard of or seen. 

(We do have a home through FHA we purchased this last year but equity is not high enough to pull out.)

Lastly, we spoke to several realtors and they seem to not know anyone who is looking for 100% investments now and owner finance is soooo rare here. 

Any piece of advice or suggestions are greatly appreciated!
